Cold that is broken by a flare of warmth
I personally find it a shame that the fragrance plays a subordinate role compared to Bois Imperial and Divine Vanille. However, it also means that the fragrance is rarely if ever encountered. Which in turn makes me happy.
Mon Vetiver starts with an extreme chord of alcohol. After just under 5 seconds, this disappears completely and gives way to a surprisingly cold sensation. Reminds me of Terre Eau Givree by Hermes. The coldness comes so suddenly that it gives you pause. Before you understand what is happening, a subtle warmth sets in. This gradually displaces the cold. It is amazing that the whole thing takes place in the first 1-2 minutes. I don't know of any fragrance that does this so impressively.
The warmth is accompanied by a fine woodiness and this is paired with a beguiling spiciness. I perceive balsamic and light cinnamon nuances. For me, vetiver through and through.
Contrary to the prevailing opinion here, the vetiver lingers for hours.
I subjected the fragrance to the hardcore program today. 11:30 a.m. 2 sprays on the neck and then 2 on the sports jersey. Then 2 hours playing soccer. Now in the evening at 9:30pm, it is still clearly noticeable. Yes, it is not a projection monster, but the stamina is very good.
